- Expertise video
Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) Virus is one of the major pathogens in pigs that have a significant economic impact on the swine industry worldwide. Modified life vaccine (MLV) against PRRSV has been demonstrated as an effective tool to control clinical signs related to infection. In literature, it is described that maternally derived antibodies (MDA) might interfere with MLV vaccination efficacy.
Collecting oral fluid samples from due-to-wean litters
- Expertise article
- Almeida et al., 2020
Oral fluids are a common diagnostic sample in group-housed nursery, grow-finish, and adult swine. Although oral fluids from due-to-wean litters could be a valuable tool in monitoring pathogens and predicting the health status of pig populations post-weaning, it is generally not done because of inconsistent success in sample collection.
Gut microbiome associations with outcome following co-infection with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) in pigs immunized with a PRRS modified live virus vaccine
- Expertise article
- Constance et al., 2021 -
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) are two of the most significant pathogens affecting swine. Co-infections are common and result in respiratory disease and reduced weight gain in growing pigs.
